Sensodyne toothpaste

Does anyone know if this toothpaste contains SLS (sodium lauryl sulfate)

According to the website the total care gel doesn't, it doesn't specify for the other toothpastes so I would assume they do.

I have one of those new gel ones in the can in front of me, it's the one with the blue lid/writing called Sensodyne Multi-Action. The ingredients listed are:

Aqua
sorbitol
glycerin
hydrated silica
potassium nitrate
PEG-6
Sodium Methyl Cocoyl Taurate
Isopentane
Aroma
Cocamidopropyl Betaine
Xanthan Gum
Chondrus Crispus (Carrageenan)
Sodium Fluoride
Socium Saccharin
Sucralose
Soldium Hydroxide
Limnene
CI 42090

The tin also says:
CONTAINS Sodium Fluoride 0.32? 2/2 (1450ppm fluroide) and Potassium Nitrate 5% w/w

I also have a tube of Sensodyne Original Strongium Chrloride - it's the white tube with pink/red on it. The ingredient list on that reads:

water
glycerol
sorbitol
calcium carbonate
hydroxyethl collulose
colloidal anhydrous silica
sodium methyl cocoyl taurate
polyoxyl 40 stearate
titanium dioxide
sodium saccharin
erythrosine (e127)
spearmint oil
Pepermint oil
levomethol
methyl salicylate
oil of cassia

Mmmm sounds delicious....

The original kind never used to contain SLS, not sure if this is still the case or not though. x

I have the sensodyne gentle whitening one i can't see it in the ingredients listed on it so i presume it doesn't.

I have got the Sensodyne Multi Action iso-active foaming gel and as per SnowyOwl's list above, it doesn't specify SLS as an ingredient.

Also in my cupboard is Colgate Sensitive Multi Protection and that does list Sodium Lauryl Sulfate as an ingredient.
